Abstract
Some phenomena, like sunrise or sunset, like the shade - and some experiences - as waiting for sunrise in the morning, or spending all night in the open air observating constellations - are big and perhaps new experiences, for young people 6 years old and also for their teachers. One of my aims is to propose a direct contact with the objects of nature, on the earth and in the sky, observed in their real time. Perhaps the direct observation can help to establish a link between "thinking like Coipernicus" and "seeing like Ptolomeus", tipical problem in teaching Astronomy.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
